The farm lies less than 2 miles to the east of the village of Pettinain and about 7 miles from Lanark where everyday conveniences such as supermarkets, professional services, banking facilities and secondary schooling are available. Symington, approximately 9 miles away, offers primary schooling. The area is well served by agricultural merchants and livestock markets in Lanark, Ayr (48 miles) and Stirling (58 miles). Description Eastfield Farm has been in the Dunlop family for many generations, originally as a tenanted farm belonging to Eagle Star, then bought by the family in 1988. The farm comprises a dairy and arable farm currently carrying 110 commercial Holstein cows plus followers and a pedigree flock of Texel ewes. The milk is currently sold on contract to Arla. The farm extends in total to 227.3 acres of generally all arable or silage ground which is easily accessed either from main roads or internal access tracks. The land is classified as grades 13 and 32 and is mostly flat lying ranging from approximately 185 metres to 222 metres above sea level. There are generally 20 acres of spring barley grown each year and two cuts of silage taken. The ground is utilised for hogg wintering from September to March each year. Eastfield Farmhouse Eastfield Farmhouse is located to the south of the farm buildings, with a separate tree lined driveway from the farm road, and enjoys a southerly aspect with views across the surrounding countryside. The farmhouse dates back to 1890 and is of traditional stone and slate construction with spacious accommodation over two floors as shown on the accompanying floor plans. The front door of the farmhouse enters into a wide entrance hallway providing access to all ground floor accommodation including two reception rooms with open fires, the dining room with original panelled ceiling and fireplace, kitchen with range of fitted wall and floor units, pantry behind and access to shower room and WC. Passing under the stairs there is a useful office / storage space where the oil fired boiler providing heating and hot water to the house is situated. Leading from the entrance hall there are stairs to the first floor where there are three large double bedrooms, a 4th smaller bedroom and a family bathroom with three piece suite. The farmhouse benefits from UPVC double glazing throughout. An attractive garden to the south of the farmhouse is predominantly laid to lawn interspersed with small trees and shrubs. floorplans Gross internal area (approx): House: 198.25 sq.m (2134 sq.ft) Cottage: 132.94 sq.m (1431 sq.ft) For Identification Only.

Originally a stone and slate dwelling, it was extended in 1964 and again in the 1990s in brick to create accommodation as follows: kitchen, sitting room, dining room, sun room, two bedrooms, family bathroom and cloakroom, as shown on the accompanying floor plan. The cottage benefits from UPVC double glazing. Farm Buildings The farmyard is split in two by the original dairy buildings with the traditional farm buildings to one side and the modern purpose built buildings to the other, as shown on the accompanying plan. The traditional farm buildings constructed in stone and slate are generally used for storage or isolation pens and are formed from three attached byres extending to 20.1m x 6.6m, 17.2m x 6.1m and 10.6m x approximately 3m. Adjoining the farmhouse to the north, are the bulk tank room and original dairy buildings (18.7m x 4.9m) with access to the parlour and cubicle shed beyond. Dairy Complex (41.1m x 22m) Comprises Westfalia 10:10 direct line parlour with automatic cluster removal, 3400 litre bulk tank and associated plant and equipment including 130kW generator. There are 92 cubicles within this steel portal frame shed with solid concrete floor, block walls, mixture of corrugated and Yorkshire boarding cladding and fibrous cement roof sheets. There is an automatic scraper system and direct line to the 200,000 gallon slurry tower adjacent. Cow Shed (30.1m x 23.8m) A steel portal frame building with solid concrete central feed passage and hardcore based pens, concrete panels, profile metal sheet and Yorkshire board cladding under fibrous cement roof sheets. Young Stock Shed (16.0m x 7.5m) A timber framed building with concrete floor and corrugated iron cladding and roof sheets. Feed barrier to the front. Straw Shed and Feed Store (22.2m x 6.2m) A concrete frame building with solid concrete floor and profile metal sheet cladding and roof. Currently split between enclosed grain storage and open straw storage. Nissen Hut (8.9m x 5.0m) Corrugated iron clad Nissen hut with concrete floor utilised for young stock housing. Young Stock Shed (12.2m x 6.4m) Timber framed building with concrete block walls and corrugated iron cladding and roof sheets. Dutch Barn (13.7m x 6.6m) Metal framed building with hardcore floor and corrugated iron cladding and roof sheets. Farmland Extending to 227.33 acres in total, the land is split into four blocks by the main road, the railway and the River Clyde, with the majority of the land being over the railway bridge from the farm buildings. The land is typical of alluvial soils with areas of sandy loam and alluvial clay within close proximity to the river. As a result, the majority of the land is either arable or silage ground and is all stock proof fenced with post and wire fences and all enclosures benefit from water supply. Fields adjacent to the River Clyde can be subject to seasonal flooding. The land to the east of the railway is designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest known as the Clyde Meanders, however there are no obligations or restrictions on the farming activity in this area.

  • Parishes and Congregations: Names No Longer in Use
    S E C T I O N 9 A Parishes and Congregations: names no longer in use The following list updates and corrects the ‘Index of Discontinued Parish and Congregational Names’ in the previous online section of the Year Book. As before, it lists the parishes of the Church of Scotland and the congregations of the United Presbyterian Church (and its constituent denominations), the Free Church (1843–1900) and the United Free Church (1900–29) whose names have completely disappeared, largely as a consequence of union. This list is not intended to be ‘a comprehensive guide to readjustment in the Church of Scotland’. Its purpose is to assist those who are trying to identify the present-day successor of a former parish or congregation whose name is now wholly out of use and which can therefore no longer be easily traced. Where the former name has not disappeared completely, and the whereabouts of the former parish or congregation may therefore be easily established by reference to the name of some existing parish, the former name has not been included in this list. Present-day names, in the right-hand column of this list, may be found in the ‘Index of Parishes and Places’ near the end of the book. The following examples will illustrate some of the criteria used to determine whether a name should be included or not: • Where all the former congregations in a town have been united into one, as in the case of Melrose or Selkirk, the names of these former congregations have not been included; but in the case of towns with more than one congregation, such as Galashiels or Hawick, the names of the various constituent congregations are listed.

  • The Excavation and Survey of Prehistoric Enclosures at Blackshouse Burn, Lanarkshire Olivia Lelong* & Tony Pollard* with Contributions by a Crone, D Jordan & S Ramsay
    3 13-5 , (1998) 8 12 Scot, Antiq Soc Proc The excavation and survey of prehistoric enclosures at Blackshouse Burn, Lanarkshire Olivia Lelong* & Tony Pollard* with contributions by A Crone, D Jordan & S Ramsay ABSTRACT Limited excavations were carried out in 1985-6 on a large, subcircular enclosure and a smaller adjacent one, built on the edge of an ancient bog, on Pettinain Hill in Lanarkshire. These investigations established that the larger monument had been built by erecting a double row of timber posts and piling a stony bank between the two rows; the preserved, waterlogged stumps of oak posts were found in post-holes on either side of the bank. The bank was later elaborated, with stones pitched around the standing posts and, in a final stage, it was capped once the posts had decayed. Excavations on the bank defining the much smaller, adjacent enclosure, built just within the bog, found it had been built by digging holes in the peat and building a stone structure above. An oak post from the large enclosure was dated to 4035 + 55 BP (2697-2453 cal BC). The authors suggest the large monument had its origins in an early Neolithic tradition of transhumance and that its builders were drawn and held to the upland basin by the presence of water there. The excavation was directed by Peter Hill; the project has been funded throughout by Historic Scotland and its predecessor department (SDD/HBM). INTRODUCTION Described as 'one of the strangest monuments in Lanarkshire' (RCAHMS 1978, 78), the enormous, banked enclosure at Blackshouse Burn and a much smaller neighbouring enclosure lie in an upland basin in Upper Clydesdale (NGR: NS 9528 4046).
